Did You Know This About Mandrakes In HARRY POTTER…

They were used as weapons in the Battle of Hogwarts because the cry of these plants is fatal to humans, and the screams of a full-grown adult mandrake can even kill! Mandrake plants have powerful restorative properties. In the early stages, the root system looks like a small baby, which matures into a small humanoid adult. Even as a baby, the Mandrake's howls can knock a person out for a couple of hours. That's why Neville and Professor Sprout threw pots of screaming mandrakes over the walls onto Death Eaters during the Battle of Hogwarts!

I don't know why but I've always loved Neville being so into plants. He failed at so many things academically, it's nice that one of the things he excels at it caring for other life

[Auhei...]

- Death eater 1 "Run they're throwing baby plants at us"

- death eater 2 "what"

- the plants "waah"

- death eater 2 "oh shit"

"the cry of these plants is fatal to humans, and the scream of a fully-grown mandrake can evil kill."

"I AM GROOT!

"Oh no, baby groot just 'thanosed' Neville"

The sound is fatal to humans and the cry can even kill...yes that's what fatal means

[GalacticPossum]

God, I love Neville. It's love a version of the arc told with him as the MC.

And then he went on to co-teach it with Sprout until she retires and he takes over. He also becomes head of Gryffindor apparently with McGonagall taking over as Headmistress.

You see in Pan's Labyrinth the girl puts a mandrake in a bowl of milk and places it under her pregnant mother's bed.
A mandrake is supposed to protect the mother and baby.

are they really sentient?? and how can they just chop them up for food if they are like humans??? 😳

[paulpoumet]

Whaaaat!!!??? Something fatal can even kill!? No way!

[zeddy]

Imagine if Voldemort got killed by a mandrake

[CrimsonsHorseLife]

“the cry of these plants is fatal to humans and sometimes can even kill” had me laughing (no offence it just made me laugh)
